some transitions around here

it has taken me a year and a half to figure out Pillow Thoughts nicheI have listened to readers, debated back and forthand I have started the transition to share a littlemore of our lifestylemore of my familymore photography related thingsmore about little onesand more about fashion

more picture of us and less web

i am still figuring out what I am going to do with our personal blogbut right now, it's been tough keeping both up.

in other newswe have been doing some rearranging in lexi's room..i'm wanting change, i want to paint, and i want it more of a functional roomtyson and I had talked about whether or not we wanted to make the bed transition andlast night we decided to make lexi's crib into a big girl bedlast night went over very well, it was like every other nightwe read, we said prayers, we sent dad offi sang and laid her down in bed

i hurried back to our room to watch her on the baby monitor(i made sure it was ready, to capture all of it)she was sound asleep in the same spot i had laid her down in(pictures of everything on instagram)i actually wasn't too worried about the night timebecause she tends to have a late bed timewhich makes it easy for all of us for her to willingly go down.

i am more worried for the mornings

i am so not a morning personshe wakes up anywhere from 8:15-10and most of the time we are lucky and its after 9

lex woke up at 9:10, i had been up for a good 40 minutes..she opened her door and said "mom?" haha it was the cutest thing ever!hopefully things continue as smoothly!(nap times are never taken in her crib anyways)

This is great!!!I hope you don't mind me asking some ?s, as we're transitioning too.My son sleeps late. But what is your definition of late? Ha Ha From what I read, many think late is 9. My son sleeps later than this.Also, please let us know how naps are, as my son sometimes doesn't take any anymore.:)

Man, I wish my son would sleep until 9! He is awake around 6:30, but since he gets so cranky when he wakes up that early in the morning, I send him back to bed and then he gets up for good about an hour later. I need my hour of quiet time before the day gets started! We moved him to a twin size bed about a month ago and he's been doing pretty good. The first 2 nights went great, and then for about 2 weeks after that it was pretty rough. But he's adjusted to it now and he's fine. :)
